You could use this book in the classroom in many ways. I would use it when educating my class about the events of 9/11 (before reading the book) or for social-emotional ideas. Never be afraid to follow your dreams, work hard, and don't give up.
“The sky surrounded him. Seagulls flew under and over. As long as he stayed on the wire he was free.“
pickThe Man Who Walked Between the Towers by Mordicai Gerstein, published in 2004 uses many colors, lines, and space to tell a story. In the pictures, you can see the use of different lines to create perspective, depth, and texture. The illustrator used pictures each with a black outline. This allowed for multiple stories to be told on one page. There were also pages that folded outwards, extending the image. It is more interactive for the reader.
